the choice to be alone
and the reason is unknown.
Some prefer the silence,
or in some circumstances,
they even prefer the noise;
the clicking that fingers
create on these keys.
The hum of thoughts in your head.
Or even shouting screams of matches
you need to make and win in your mind.
To be so close, or so far:
from everyone.
And everything you've ever
wanted to achieve-
never forgetting to be right
beyond your fingertips.
Running, and out of breath
for the next to last opportunity
life will never allow you to take
because it will tear away
the lonely home you have.
One person,
alone, myself is enough,
and anyone else is too perplexing
to figure out.
